What in hell is going on??? Are people bitching about having a free facility? Having to share the wall? Having to share a crag? Are the red and green neon signs of Burnley sponsors too bright that the glare is stopping you from doing that crucial cross through?

What the f*uck?? Selfish pricks...

If you don't want to share the wall with people who don't climb as hard as you, go build your own wall and keep it a secret..

If you don't want to share a crag, you're a selfish idiot...

If you don't like the idea of corporate sponsors making the odd dollar (they won't be getting rich too quickly by selling 3 pairs of shoes a month) from an investment they made.... don't buy from the sponsor. It's that simple.

If you liked old Burnley more, go climb there, you'll have it all to yourself!!

The fact is, a lot of people volunteered hundreds of hours worth of time, and corporate sponsors invested a lot of money into getting this off the ground. Show a little f*cking gratitude for the fact that it's free, it's easy to get to, and it caters for everyone.

There are many options if you don't like sharing a sponsored wall.

-Bitch and moan incessantly about it, but still use the facility anyway.
-Go pay $11 at commercial venture (now you'll be directly supporting the corporate ventures), -Build your own wall, but you'll have to buy some holds from someone....
-Go and climb some real rock
-Just shut the f*ck up and use it for what it is, a free facility..
